Club career

García made his professional debut on 6 October 2001 at age 19 for Pachuca in a game against Toluca.[1] He replaced his colleague, second-string goalkeeper Jesus Salvador Alfaro, who had been red-carded in a 3–3 tie. He played the last 4 minutes of the game, was scored on by Víctor Ruiz and Toluca won the game, 4–3.

He was inactive for a period, until he reappeared with Lobos BUAP in 2005, playing in two games and allowing just two goals.
